When my Grandpa died, my mom told me that there was an old baseball card collection anywhere in the house.
She truly did not suppose where all the old cards were stored, despite the fact that she knew that they were anywhere within the various walls, my Grandpa showed her the card collection about 10 years ago and some of the cards were worth a lot of currency.
My mom tried to get him to sell the cards then, despite the fact that he was stingy and wanted to hoard them. I looked all over the home for those old cards. My mom thought the collection might be worth $5,000 or $10,000 due to the amount of rookie cards that were inside of the little plastic sheets. The people I was with and I started in the attic. The people I was with and I had a lot of junk to search through and every one of us had to clean everything up and get the home ready to sell. The people I was with and I moved room by room through the home cleaning everything while still looking for the card collection. I finally found the cards outside on the front porch. They were underneath some old records that were disfigured honestly badly from the Heat and humidity. The records were warped and wavy. The cards looked about the same. The humidity disfigured all of those old cards. My Grandpa did not bother to put the cards in the home where the a/c would have kept them safe. Most of the cards were worthless after the heat disfigure and the a singles that could have been worth a lot of currency had been sold some time in the last 10 years.
